§ 01 STUDIO ABOUT THE STUDIO / 工作室
EN

We are a small studio obsessed with one question — how to get the colour you saw to become the colour you print.

From the sensor that captured a frame, to the ink that lands on paper, a photograph passes through a chain of measurements. Every link in that chain has a truthful answer. We build the tools that listen to it.

ColourChecker makes three tools: jcolour for photographers printing their own work, gcolour for proofing rooms and brand-colour teams, and ProofTrack for press operators who need to know what every colour bar is saying.

我们是一间很小的工作室,只想回答一个问题 —— 如何让你看见的颜色,成为你打印出来的颜色。

从传感器捕捉的一帧,到墨水落在纸上,照片要穿过一条由测量构成的链。链上每一环都有可以被验证的答案,我们做的是能听懂这条链的工具。

ColourChecker 做三款工具:jcolour 给亲手打印作品的摄影师,gcolour 给打样工作室与品牌色彩团队,ProofTrack 给印刷车间里需要随时知道色带在说什么的人。

§ 03 METHOD FROM MEASUREMENT TO PRINT / 从测量到输出

Every pixel we print has a reason. We follow it back to the source.

我们打印出的每一个像素,都有它的依据。我们把它追回到源头。

  1. 01

    Measure

    Instruments, not assumptions. Targets, patches, and paper tell us what the ink and substrate truly do.

    测量

    用仪器说话,不靠假设。靶、色块、纸张告诉我们墨与承印物究竟在做什么。

  2. 02

    Model

    A faithful model of how the printer behaves — channel by channel, substrate by substrate, condition by condition.

    建模

    建立一个忠实于打印机行为的模型 —— 逐通道、逐承印物、逐条件地还原它。

  3. 03

    Translate

    From the image you saw to the drops the printer lays down — without losing the evidence along the way.

    转换

    从你看到的画面,到机器最终落下的每一滴墨 —— 不在途中丢失任何一条证据。

  4. 04

    Verify

    Nothing is finished until the print has been measured back, and matches.

    验证

    在打印被重新测回、并且匹配之前,这件事不算结束。
